Preservation
Over Popularity

We’re not looking for ambassadors with the most social followers or successful personal brands. We want to connect with spirited people truly committed to the preservation and promotion of wilderness places. Nature Bound Co was founded from a deep love for nature, and we want ambassadors who share that passion. Whether you hike, bike, paddle, or trail run, it does not much matter to us. First and foremost, you’ve got to seek adventure in the great outdoors and have tons of fun while doing it!

Responsibilities:

Above all else, you’ve got to respect the sacred rules of the trail (river, lake, etc.). Leave no trace. Pack out what you pack in. Treat your nature buddies with kindness. Most importantly, respect the wild man! We only want to connect with folks who hold a deep reverence for wilderness places, because preservation is as important to us as creating and sharing sweet merch.

Ambassadors

Our ambassadors are pretty spectacular people. Each is unique in that they’ve got their own story to tell. But we’re all joined by the bonds of loving nature. We all seek the calm and peace that wilderness brings, and we’re all dedicated to preserving remote places. No two Nature Bound Co ambassadors are the same, so read about each one below. Hopefully, you’ll meet them on the trail sometime.

Moses Landon Berdy

Asheville, NC

My name is Moses Berdy. I was born and raised in South Florida. I am currently living in Chattanooga, Tennessee, although i definitely dont plan to set down roots here. Next stop: Colorado, then Oregon and the PNW!

Traveling, road tripping, camping, and hiking, are by far my favorite past times. If there’s a scenic route, I’m probably on it, and I’m also probably irritating all the people in the car who just wanna go eat because im pulled over taking pictures.

I’ve always loved the outdoors, and moved to TN to explore and climb mountains, figuratively and literally. The last few years have been full of tribulation for me, but mountains can be sanctuaries, as I’ve learned, and i just want to inspire people to see the world in the same light.

Violet Wiseman

Asheville, NC

I’m originally from Miami, FL but have been visiting WNC every summer with my family since 1996. We would hike DuPont, Gorges, Pisgah, and more countless times before driving back down to Southern Florida.

In 2005, we moved to Asheville, NC and I knew that I was home. In 2011, I went to NC State out in Raleigh but always found the mountains calling me home so, in 2015, I moved back. Since then, I’ve been juggling nursing school and exploring the vast beauty that surrounds us with my dog, Dash.

He recently and suddenly went blind so, instead of hiking alongside me, he now has it easy and hitches a ride in my backpack as we tackle new trails together.

I’m an avid explorer and photographer based out of Greenville SC who avidly explores around the country capturing the beauty that surrounds us; though you can usually find me on a Cliffside or deep in the forest in our beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North and South Carolina

My passion is to share these gems with others especially those who can’t get out to enjoy them for themselves!

Casey Prevette

Statesville, NC

I’m a North Carolina based graphic designer and photographer. I’ve been focusing on getting in touch with nature for the past few years, and I have really fallen for it! Photography allows me to connect my new-found love of nature to my other love… creative technology.

Spending time outdoors or travelling with my wife and friends has become a necessity that keeps me balanced. Every excursion is a new opportunity to learn more about the world and the people I care about most. See you out there!!

Peter Mermilliod

Jonesborough, TN

Hi! I’m Peter Mermilliod (yes, my last name is a bear to pronounce, but its like a black bear, not a grizzly or anything that unmanageable). I grew up in the farthest corners of East Tennessee, and learned from a young age to see and respect the wildness in all things. I’m avid hiker, distance runner, and rock climber, and I love going more miles on my feet in a week than most people put on their cars. I’m a naturalist, a transcendentalist, a mystic, and a mandolin player.

One of my biggest goals is to connect people to the wilderness around, between, and within their lives.

Joshua Barnett

Winston Salem, NC

Although I was born in Florida, I jokingly refer to myself as being raised one summer at a time in the mountains of WNC. Now after moving to NC full-time in 2018, It’s been “slingshot engage” for adventures. As the co-founder of Southern Overland Company, based in Winston-Salem, I’m passionate about all things travel and outdoors.Whether it be rain, snow, sleet, or hail..if I’m outside, I’m stoked.

With so many gorgeous, natural wonders within a few hours drive there’s no shortage of good times and rad vibes. Since motorcycles, 4x4s, and photography are intertwined in most of my daily life i’m seldom sitting still. When I’m not at my ‘grown-up’ job you can find me bouncing around the state in an old Land Rover or topless Jeep Rubicon with my amazingly talented photographer girlfriend, Chelsea. See ya on the trails and stay rad!

Zachary Dolin

Hendersonville, NC

My name is Zachary Dolin, and I am a photographer and avid adventurer of all things nature. I was born and raise in the Appalachian mountains of West Virginia, where I spent most of my time in the woods exploring wherever I could.

After moving around many states, experiencing new places, I landed in Asheville, NC in 2013. I immediately fell in love with mountains, and exploring everything they had to offer! I spent the next 4 years working as a wilderness guide in the Pisgah and Nantahala National Forests leading backpacking trips for young adults in recovery.

Today, spend whatever free time I have exploring, chasing waterfalls and sunsets, and traveling. All with my camera in hand, to share the beauty of nature with everyone that I can.

Charlotte, North Carolina

My name is Joshua Herrera, Im a US Army Vet and landscape photographer based in Charlotte, NC. Ive always loved hiking and being outdoors, ever since I was little and my dad took me hiking for the first time I became hooked. After the army I fell out of love with everything but the mountains called me back and reminded me of who I was. The military taught me to not take life for granted and to enjoy it doing the things I love, with the people I love most. You can find me doing homework during the week and chasing sunrises in the mountains on the weekend. Rain or shine my wife and I are out enjoying the beauty of nature.
